Athens- taxis for 6?

When we were in Athens 6 of us took a taxi tour after being solicited by a driver outside the port gates. Because we were 6 we needed 2 taxis which was okay. The tour was just what we wanted- time at the Acropolis, time at the Acropolis Museum, a stop to see the changing of the guard timed perfectly by the lead driver, and time at another temple ruin.

Six friends will be in Athens in October and I have suggested they take a taxi tour over the ship transfer because distances between the sights we saw, and the ship description of what they will be able to see, require a means of transportation to get from one to another.

Is there a chance that there will be a taxi tour van that holds 6?

You can prebook a Tour company. They have vans that can accommodate your party. We are arriving into Athens, have prearranged for PK tours to pick us up and transfer us to our hotel. We are a party of 4 with luggge. They are picking us up the next morning for our tour of Athens, then dropping us at the pier.

Have your friends contact PK Travel Greece. There is a separate thread of CC posters writing about their experiences if you want to search.

I have used a company called wellcomepickups many times in Athens ( most recently 5 weeks ago) for several transfers and tours .

Very easy to book on line.

Just enter nr of people, nr of luggage, when and where to pick up and drop off and you get instant quotes. They also do tours and the website will direct you.

Also used them in Barcelona.

Can't speak highly enough of their service.
